Vom Unternehmen geschrieben

Unfortunately, the reviews posted on TP are neither an accurate or a genuine reflection on our ratings. All our verified reviews, based on genuine experiences and after-sales services, are readily available on other review sites. These sites do not allow fake reviews. However, TP has been removing legitimate verified positive reviews from our customers to ‘encourage’ us into purchasing paid plans to improve our rating scores, while refusing to remove unverified reviews. Over the past four months, TP has removed 86 verified positive reviews from our page however, allowed false, inaccurate and unverified reviews published, even after we provided information to confirm the reviews were false and misleading. AInterestingly, TP contacted us via email, offering upgraded subscriptions with promises of a quick improvement in impact (star ratings) Essentially, paying them would stop the removal of positive reviews and increase our score. This kind of behaviour is a common issue with TP and small businesses. Our understanding is that the platform's prioritisation of revenue generation over the integrity of its review system undermines the reliability of the reviews displayed. This perceived bias towards paying clients, combined with the lack of clear, transparent and consistent review moderation processes, further erodes confidence in TP's ability to provide an honest and fair representation of customer feed In addition, any positive reviews posted are automatically removed by Trustpilot, unless we provide a sales invoice as proof it was posted by a genuine customer, however negative false reviews are allowed to remain, even when we request proof of a sales invoice, or even an email address Trustpilot refuse to provide to us. Trustpilot reviews are not verified, and Trustpilot reviews are NOT to be trusted.

Horrendous dealership

Stay away from these people
They lie..ignore your calls and emails
Bought a car in Jan 25 had it delivered to my home address..next day I changed my mind and returned it under the 14 day rule for distant selling
It took me until August to get my money back after going through the courts ..AA mediated for me and the dealership told them I would be paid on that day(which didn't happen)then they cancelled their contract with the AA and went with the RAC as a trusted dealer..TRUSTED..that's a joke
A week before they had to answer to the court..they offered to pay me if i cancelled the court (which would have made me liable for their costs) and I wasn't to leave any reviews etc

I purchased a bmw x3 and that seemed easy, happy to drop it to me at my cost, within the first day a drivetrain sensor error came up on the dash so they collected it and after 8 days i finally got the car back and then a week after that the central looking failed and left me and my disabled partner locked in the car for hours and had to pay a mechanic to help and then get it fixed which i appreciate was paid for by the garage. Two weeks later went in to the garage again as the turbo is just about gone and both control arms shot. Rear lights have gone and folding mirrors packed up. This is the only car i have brought and not really been able to drive it. No response from car hub or car central which ever name they wish to use now. Hate this car as I'm convinced it is cursed or something along them lines. Should never have been sold if the so called mechanic knew what he was doing. And as for the service i paid for pre delivery i do not think anything was done and as for the MOT passing is another questionable matter. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE COWBOYS. Warranty is not worth the paper its wrote on either

Thank you for your review, Darren, regarding your BMW X3. When we collected the car after you had it for 48 hours, the drive chain light had come on. We immediately picked the car up, repaired it, and returned it to you within eight days. Considering you live 180 miles away, we believe that was a strong turnaround.
As for your later claim that the turbo has failed, we have not received any evidence of this. Referring to us as “cowboys” is unfair, especially when the vehicle in question is nearly 18–19 years old, where age-related issues can and do occur. We take pride in addressing problems promptly and professionally, and your comments do not reflect the efforts made to resolve matters in good faith.

Thank you for your comments. To clarify, our business has been trading for many years, and we actively encourage genuine, verified feedback from our customers. We value reviews that include a real name, email address, and a clear account of the experience, as this allows us to validate the purchase and address any concerns appropriately.
Unfortunately, Trustpilot does not provide the level of verification we expect. We have found that unverified users can leave reviews under false names or without providing any details that allow us to confirm their experience or assist them. Meanwhile, Trustpilot has previously removed genuine reviews from real customers unless we supply invoice numbers—yet they allow unverified negative reviews to remain. We, like many other small businesses, have also declined their invitation to pay substantial monthly fees to “improve” our Trustpilot rating, which raises understandable concerns.
Across other reputable review platforms, where reviews are validated with purchase details, we consistently maintain ratings of 4.4 stars and above. These verified reviews reflect real customer experiences and are a far more accurate representation of the service we provide.
We always aim to resolve any issues, but this is only possible when reviewers provide their name, contact information, and a clear description of the situation. If you would like to discuss your experience directly, we welcome you to contact us, and we will be more than happy to help.

WORST GARAGE I'VE EVER DEALT WITH. STEER CLEAR!!

I bought a car from Car Central Birmingham in August 2024, and it was a catastrophic mistake. Within two weeks, a severe clutch failure rendered the vehicle a dangerous liability. When their half-baked repair attempts flopped, I exercised my legal right to reject the car. What followed was absolutely shocking.
Car Central Birmingham had the audacity to deny my right to return the vehicle, bombarding me with blatant lies and stalling tactics. I was forced to escalate the matter with a Section 75 claim through Lloyds Bank and seek guidance from Citizens Advice, who confirmed the dealership’s actions were indefensible.
Their communication was an absolute farce—unprofessional doesn’t even begin to cover it. For months, they ghosted my emails, only sporadically contacting me from unlisted mobile numbers. Eventually, they stopped answering my calls entirely, forcing me to borrow a friend’s phone just to get through.
After dragging their feet until January 2025—five agonizing months after the purchase—they grudgingly agreed to take the car back. They then relisted the car for sale before even processing my refund.
I eventually received a measly £3,000 partial refund on 24th March, with the remaining £6,000 conveniently “forgotten.” If Lloyds Bank hadn’t stepped in to recover the funds through a dispute, I’d have been completely ripped off. Car Central dodged calls, broke every promise, and pulled every slimy trick in the book to evade their obligations.
This dealership is a cesspool of dishonesty, incompetence, and predatory behavior. Car Central Birmingham should be avoided at all costs. Save your money, your mental health, your legal rights, and steer clear of these shameless people.

The worst car buying experience

The worst car buying experience. The car will not come serviced, despite what they charge and say, the service “is just a top up check” according to harry! Despite having a new mot my car had many faults including needing new discs and pads, needing 3 new tyres and multiple oil leaks, something the courts are aware of and trading standards too! You will not get the inspection promised or the PDI check, despite them charging you for it. Once you’ve paid you will never get that money back. They ignore everything, including CCJ’s from the small claims court. Question why they are no longer AA approved, I think I am to blame for that, you broke every one of their standards you promise and then you’ve ran to the RAC. That won’t last long with how you trade. My personal experience, 9k car, tried to return within 14 days as is my legal right, refused to refund, they collected to repair, 7 weeks later returned still not road worthy. Several thousand now spent and court action taken and won. Still refusing to pay. Read the trust pilot reviews do your research. I would never do any business with this company again or recommend family or friends to. The company has blocked google reviews for a reason. You will be risking driving an unsafe vehicle from personal experience.

Hello Paul,
Thank you for your review. However, we would like to clarify the facts regarding your concerns.
You purchased the car from us in October 2024 and contacted us via email in April 2025. In your email, you mentioned that the car needed new brakes and that a wire was showing through a tyre. We asked for the car's mileage at that time, and you confirmed that you had driven 5,000 miles since purchase. The car had a new MOT at the time of sale, and these faults were not present when you bought it.
You also stated that the warranty company had not refunded you for the glow plugs. However, when we contacted them, they had no record of your claim. We then requested an invoice from you, which you provided. Upon reviewing the invoice, we noticed discrepancies—it was dated 30/01/2025 but stated that payment was made on 12/12/2024. These dates did not align, raising concerns about the validity of the invoice. We forwarded it to the warranty company, and they confirmed that it was incorrect and not genuine.
When writing a review, we kindly ask that you remain factual and honest. We are always happy to assist our customers, but it is important to ensure accuracy in any claims made. The facts remain: you have had the car for six months, driven 5,000 miles, and are now claiming that the brakes and tyres were faulty at the time of sale additionally you are now claiming that when the car arrived both drivers side wheels are flaking and peeling - yet you have only just advised us 6 months later? However, it is unlikely that the car could have covered that distance if the brakes and tyres were already in such poor condition.
* EDIT * Yes, we can confirm we are an RAC Approved dealer not AA.
Thank you for your follow-up message. I believe the review in question should be removed, as it is entirely false and not based on any factual information. If it is not taken down, we will be contacting the AA and considering further action through our legal team.
We completely understand that you're frustrated, as things may not be going the way you'd hoped. However, as you mentioned in your email on Wednesday—stating that you would respond in the morning—it seems instead you've chosen to post a review, despite knowing the claims you made were untrue. Additionally, the invoice you submitted to the warranty company was fraudulent.

Please dont even go near this company if you are looking to purchase a car and want to be at ease. The after service once you've paid them is shocking. They cut the call on you, give you false information etc and Harry the manager has no customer service skills at all its a joke. There is no such thing as warranty with these guys, and they'll make you pay for things which you have not even agreed to. I have never wrote a bad review for anyone so you know this is as real as it gets.

Thank you for your review and for informing us that you never leave negative feedback. We would like to respond and clarify the facts.
You purchased a car from us on August 24. In January 2025 you claimed that the vehicle required a new EGR valve. We advised you to contact your warranty provider, which you did. The warranty company then instructed you to return the car to us for inspection. If they had approved the claim, they would have emailed us to arrange the necessary repairs. Instead, they requested that you obtain a mechanical report on the vehicle. Some garages charge approximately £40 for this, but you refused to pay and instead called us over 50 times, insisting that the warranty company had already approved your claim.
Our administrative staff asked you to provide an email from the warranty company confirming this approval, but no such evidence was received. We scheduled your car for inspection on Friday at 9:00 AM. Leading up to that date, you repeatedly called to confirm the appointment, and we assured you each time that it was scheduled.
On the day of the appointment booked for 9.00 AM you arrived at 11:00 AM 2 hours late. Our technician carried out a diagnostic test, which revealed that the only issue with the car was a faulty front driver's side bulb. On a Mercedes, this part costs £40 at trade price. We replaced the bulb and informed you that this was not a warranty-covered item. The diagnostic and fitting were provided free of charge, and we only asked you to pay for the bulb.
Your response was that we had acted unlawfully and that you refused to pay, demanding that we remove the bulb. We advised you that driving with only one working headlight is illegal, especially since you were now aware of the issue. You then requested to speak with management, and Harry took your call. During the conversation, you insisted that our customer service was inadequate and claimed to have evidence from the warranty company.
When asked to provide this evidence, you sent a one-line email stating, "If the EGR valve has failed, it would be covered." However, you never submitted a mechanical report and refused to pay for any diagnostics, despite repeatedly insisting that it was our responsibility to cover the cost. When Harry informed you that we had followed the correct procedure, you hung up.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us or the warranty company directly.

Huge thank you!!!

A huge thank you to the staff of Carcentral Brum, especially Harry, for their time and patience in sourcing me a new car. I was really worried about buying my own secondhand car after having a company car for most of my life, but I am beyond happy with my car and the service I received. Thank you

Excellent service and help

Bought a fiat 500, my first car gentleman was exceptional, helped me choose a car fit for purpose which suited me and what I needed it for. I explained I wanted a manual and a small car, something that was durable and Harry did just that. Provided me with a choice of cars which I then chose the one I liked- originally this car was diesel which Harry explained would not be the most practical as living in a city with the new guidance and fees that had been raised - I was unaware of this. Once chose the car which was perfect for me Harry explained I could view the car and have a drive (not as the driver). The car was delivered with petrol in tank, all correct forms, Harry helped me throughout the whole process and gave me knowledge on where to go further - i.e insurance and other docs.
A couple years later my family went back for a new car they received the same service and have had no issues within the 5 years . Will recommend to first time drivers and anyone needing a helping hand, or anyone just looking for a good dealership
